Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a variable capacity type variable-

The present invention relates to a capacity variable type inclined plate type compressor.

Patent Document 1 discloses a conventional variable displacement type inclined plate type compressor (hereinafter referred to as a compressor). The compressor includes a housing, a drive shaft, a swash plate, a link mechanism, and a plurality of pistons. The housing is provided with a swash plate chamber and a plurality of cylinder bores. The drive shaft is rotatably supported by the housing. The swash plate is disposed in the swash plate chamber and rotated together with the drive shaft. The link mechanism is provided between the drive shaft and the swash plate. The link mechanism allows the inclination angle of the swash plate to be changed with respect to the direction orthogonal to the rotational axis of the drive shaft. Each piston is housed in a cylinder bore. Each piston reciprocates in a stroke corresponding to an inclined angle by rotation of the swash plate to form a compression chamber in the cylinder bore.

The compressor also includes a compartment, a movable body, a control pressure chamber, and a control mechanism. The partition is provided in the swash plate chamber so as to rotate integrally with the drive shaft. The moving body is rotatable integrally with the drive shaft in the swash plate chamber. The moving body moves in the rotation axis direction with respect to the divided body to change the inclination angle. The control pressure chamber is partitioned by the partition body and the moving body. The control pressure chamber moves the moving body by the internal pressure. The control mechanism controls the pressure in the control pressure chamber.

The moving body is connected to the swash plate through a connecting mechanism. More specifically, the connecting mechanism has a first arm and a second arm provided on a moving body, and a drawn portion provided on a swash plate. The first arm and the second arm extend to approach the swash plate. The drawn portions protrude between the first arm and the second arm which are opposed to each other.

One end of the connecting pin is inserted into the first pull hole and the other end of the connecting pin is inserted into the second pull hole.

In this compressor, when the moving body is displaced toward the side opposite to the swash plate in the direction of the rotating shaft center due to a high pressure in the control pressure chamber, the first and second tow holes of the first and second arms and the connecting pin The displacement is transmitted to the swash plate. As a result, the moving body pulls the swash plate to increase the inclination angle.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional compressor, when the inclination angle of the swash plate is changed, the relative positional relationship between the connection pin and the first and second pull holes is not changed. In this regard, for example, when the degree of freedom in setting the changing pattern of the inclination angle of the swash plate with the displacement of the moving body is increased, by changing the first and second pull holes into the long hole shape, A second pulling surface for contacting the connecting pin is formed on the side opposite to the swash plate, and a second pulling surface for contacting the connecting pin on the side opposite to the swash plate is formed on the second arm. With the change of the inclination angle of the swash plate , And the connection pin is reciprocated while sliding on the first and second traction surfaces.

However, in the compressor employing such a configuration, the inclination angle of the swash plate is smoothly changed by the frictional force when the connection pin fixed to the piston is slid on the first and second traction surfaces so as not to come off from the piston There is a possibility that it becomes difficult.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a variable displacement type inclined plate type compressor capable of smoothly changing the inclination angle of a swash plate.

A variable capacity inclined plate type compressor of the present invention comprises a housing having a swash plate chamber and a cylinder bore formed therein,

A drive shaft rotatably supported on the housing,

A swash plate disposed in the swash plate chamber and rotated together with the drive shaft,

A link mechanism for permitting a change in the inclination angle of the swash plate with respect to a direction orthogonal to the rotation axis of the drive shaft,

A piston housed in the cylinder bore and reciprocating in a stroke corresponding to the inclined angle by rotation of the swash plate to form a compression chamber in the cylinder bore,

A partition member installed in the swash plate chamber so as to be rotatable integrally with the drive shaft,

A moving body which is rotatable integrally with the drive shaft in the swash plate chamber and which moves in the rotation axis direction with respect to the partition body to change the inclination angle;

A control pressure chamber which is partitioned by the partition and the movable body to move the movable body by an internal pressure,

And a control mechanism for controlling the pressure in the control pressure chamber,

Wherein the moving body is connected to the swash plate through a connecting mechanism to increase the inclination angle by pulling the swash plate by increasing the pressure in the control pressure chamber,

The swash plate is provided with a top dead center point corresponding to the top dead center of the piston,

A virtual plane including the top dead center point corresponding portion and the rotational axis is defined,

The connection mechanism includes a first arm formed on the moving body and extending toward the swash plate, a first arm formed on one side of the virtual surface, and a second arm formed on the moving body and extending toward the swash plate, A protruding portion formed on the swash plate and extending toward the moving body and positioned between the first arm and the second arm; and a second protruding portion inserted through the protruding portion, And a connecting pin connecting to the arm and the second arm,

Wherein the first arm is formed with a first pulling surface which is in contact with the connecting pin on the side opposite to the swash plate,

The second arm is formed with a second traction surface which is in contact with the connection pin on the side opposite to the swash plate,

Wherein the connecting pin is rotatably held on the pawl on the first trailing surface and the second trailing surface,

And regulating means is provided between at least one of the protruding portion, the first arm and the second arm and the connecting pin to regulate the dislocation of the connecting pin in the axial direction of the connecting pin.

In the variable displacement type slanting plate type compressor of the present invention, the connection pin rotatably held by the piston is changed along the inclination angle of the swash plate, and the first and second traction surfaces are rotated . At this time, the connecting pin is regulated to be shifted in the axial direction of the connecting pin by the restricting means. This reduces the frictional force when the connecting pin rotates on the first and second traction surfaces, as compared with the frictional force when the connecting pin fixed to the object is slid on the first and second traction surfaces.

Therefore, in the capacity variable type inclined plate type compressor of the present invention, the inclination angle of the swash plate can be changed smoothly. Further, in this capacity variable type slanting plate type compressor, wear on the connecting pin and the first and second traction surfaces can be suppressed, so that the durability can be improved.

The second arm is preferably provided with a second opposing portion facing the other end surface of the connecting pin. It is preferable that the first opposing portion and the second opposing portion constitute a restricting means. According to this configuration, the first and second opposing portions of the first and second arms also serve as the restricting means, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

The end face of the connecting pin is preferably chamfered. According to this configuration, since the engagement of the end surface of the connection pin when the end surface of the connection pin slidably contacts the first and second opposing portions can be suppressed, the connection pin can smoothly rotate on the first and second traction surfaces.

Preferably, a support hole for rotatably supporting the connection pin is formed in the protruding portion. It is preferable that the support hole is formed such that the inner diameter of the support hole at the opening end side is larger than the inner diameter at the inner side than the opening end of the support hole. According to this configuration, even when the swash plate is twisted around the direction perpendicular to the rotational axis of the drive shaft, the connection pin is inclined in the support hole, so that the abutment against the first and second traction surfaces of the connection pin can be maintained . As a result, in this compressor, it is possible to prevent the traction force acting on the first arm and the traction force acting on the second arm from becoming uneven.

In the capacity variable type inclined plate type compressor of the present invention, the inclination angle of the swash plate can be smoothly changed.

Further, the material of the connection pin 155 is not limited to a metal material. The outer diameter of the connecting pin 155 is set to be small relative to the inner diameter of the connecting pin hole 150h so that the oil film of the lubricating oil contained in the refrigerant is formed between the outer peripheral surface of the connecting pin 155 and the inner peripheral surface of the connecting pin hole 150h . Thereby, when the connecting pin 155 rolls around the electric motor shaft R1, the frictional force generated between the connecting pin hole 150h and the connecting pin hole 150h becomes extremely small.

One end of the connecting pin 155 is a first shaft portion 151. The first shaft portion 151 protrudes from the connection pin hole 150h of the protruding portion 150 toward one side of the imaginary plane D. The other end of the connecting pin 155 is a second shaft portion 152. And protrudes toward the other side of the imaginary plane D from the connection pin hole 150h of the attracting-

As shown in Figs. 4, 5 and 7, the swash plate 5 has a lug arm connecting portion 5g for connecting the swash plate 5 and a lug arm 49 to be described later. 7A and 7B, the lug arm connecting portion 5g is located on the inner circumferential side of the ring plate 45 of the swash plate 5 and at a position near the top dead center corresponding portion T Are formed so as to sandwich the insertion holes 45a in a direction orthogonal to the imaginary plane D and project forward from the front face 5a.

The lug arm 49 is supported by the swash plate 5 so as to be swingable about the first swing axis M1 with the axis of the first pin 47a as the first swing axis M. The first pivot axis M1 extends in a direction orthogonal to the imaginary plane D.

The second pin 47b connects the front end side of the lug arm 49 to the first support member 43a. Thus, the lug arm 49 is rotated about the second pivot axis M2 about the first support member 43a, i.e., the drive shaft 3, with the axis of the second pin 47b as the second pivot axis M2 . The second swing axis axis M2 extends parallel to the first swing axis axis M1.

The weight portion 49a enters the communication hole 45a of the swash plate 5 while the lug arm 49 is connected to the swash plate 5 by the first pin 47a. A centrifugal force generated by rotating the swash plate 5 about the rotation axis O1 acts on the weight portion 49a.

In this compressor, the swash plate 5 and the drive shaft 3 are connected by the link mechanism 7, so that the swash plate 5 can rotate together with the drive shaft 3. The inclination angle of the swash plate 5 with respect to the direction orthogonal to the rotation axis O1 is determined by the inclination angles of the inclined plate 5 as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, respectively, as the both end portions of the lug arm 49 pivot about the first pivot axis M1 and the second pivot axis M2, 4 to the state shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 5, and Fig. 6, respectively.

In each engaging portion 9c, hemispherical shoes 11a and 11b are provided, respectively. Each shoe 11a slides on the front face 5a of the swash plate 5. [ On the other hand, each shoe 11b slides on the rear surface 5b of the swash plate 5. [ In this manner, the rotation of the swash plate 5 is converted into the reciprocating motion of the piston 9 by the shoe 11a and each shoe 11b. Each of the first head portions 9a can reciprocate within the first cylinder bore 21a with a stroke corresponding to the inclination angle of the swash plate 5. Each of the second head portions 9b is a stroke corresponding to the inclination angle of the swash plate 5, and is capable of reciprocating within the second cylinder bore 23a.

In this compressor, the stroke of each piston 9 is changed in accordance with the change of the inclination angle of the swash plate 5, so that the position of each of the first head portions 9a and the respective second head portions 9b . Concretely, as the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 becomes smaller, the top dead center position of each second head portion 9b moves larger than the top dead center position of each first head portion 9a.

Here, an assembling method when the swash plate 5 and the moving body 13a are connected through the connecting mechanism 100 will be described. The front end side of the first support member 43a of the drive shaft 3 and the lug arm 49 are connected by the second pin 47b as shown in Fig.

Next, the second small-diameter portion 30b of the drive shaft main body 30 in which the second support member 43b is not yet press-fitted is inserted into the insertion hole 45a of the swash plate 5. In this state, the swash plate 5 approaches the lug arm 49, and the weight portion 49a of the lug arm 49 is inserted into the insertion through hole 45a of the swash plate 5. At this time, the swash plate 5 is separated from the rotary axis O1 in the radially outward direction and becomes eccentric with respect to the rotary axis O1.

Next, the partition member 13c and the moving body 13a of the actuator 13 are assembled to the drive shaft body 30 from the second small-diameter portion 30b side, and the moving body 13a is moved forward so as to approach the swash plate 5 . Then, the connection pin 155 is inserted into the connection pin hole 150h of the protruding portion 150. At this time, the first shaft portion 151 and the second shaft portion 152 of the connection pin 155 are engaged with the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 of the first arm 110 and the second arm 120, , The position of the swash plate 5 is adjusted so as to be positioned on the side opposite to the rotation axis O1.

Subsequently, the swash plate 5 is moved to the moving direction D1, and the first shaft portion 151 and the second shaft portion 152 of the connecting pin 155 held by the swaging portion 150 are inserted into the first arm 110 and the second shaft portion 152, So as to abut against the first trailing surface 115 and the second trailing surface 125 of the second arm 120. The first pin 47a is inserted into the rear end side of the lug arm 49 and both end portions of the first pin 47a are fitted and fixed to the first pin hole 5h of the lug arm connecting portion 5g. As a result, the swash plate 5 and the moving body 13a are connected through the connecting mechanism 100. [ The first opposing portion 111 and the second opposing portion 121 regulate the displacement of the connecting pin 155 in the direction of the electric axis R1.

1 and 2, the control pressure chamber 13b is formed by being surrounded by the rear wall 130, the peripheral wall 131 and the partition body 13c of the moving body 13a, (Not shown).

The second small diameter portion 30b is provided with an axial passage 3a extending forward from the rear end in the direction of the rotational axis O1 and a second axial passage extending from the front end portion of the axial passage 3a in the radial direction, A path 3b is formed to open to the outside. The rear end of the shaft 3a communicates with the pressure adjusting chamber 31. [ On the other hand, the path 3b communicates with the control pressure chamber 13b. Thereby, the control pressure chamber 13b communicates with the pressure adjusting chamber 31 through the path 3b and the axial passage 3a.

3, the control mechanism 15 includes a low-pressure passage 15a, a high-pressure passage 15b, a control valve 15c, an orifice 15d, an axial passage 3a, ).

The low pressure passage 15a is connected to the pressure adjusting chamber 31 and the second suction chamber 27b. The control pressure chamber 13b communicates with the pressure adjusting chamber 31 and the second suction chamber 27b by the low pressure passage 15a, the axial passage 3a and the passage 3b. The high pressure passage 15b is connected to the pressure adjusting chamber 81 and the second discharge chamber 29b. The control pressure chamber 13b communicates with the pressure control chamber 31 and the second discharge chamber 29b by the high pressure passage 15b, the axial passage 3a and the passage 3b. An orifice 15d is provided in the high-pressure passage 15b.

The control valve 15c is provided in the low-pressure passage 15a. The control valve 15c is capable of adjusting the opening degree of the low-pressure passage 15a based on the pressure in the second suction chamber 27b.

In this compressor, a pipe connected to the evaporator is connected to the suction port 23s. Further, a pipe connected to the condenser is connected to the discharge port 23d. The condenser is connected to the evaporator through a pipe and an expansion valve. A refrigerating circuit of a car air conditioner is constituted by a compressor, an evaporator, an expansion valve, a condenser and the like. Further, the illustration of the evaporator, the expansion valve, the condenser, etc. is omitted.

In the compressor constructed as described above, the drive shaft 3 rotates to cause the swash plate 5 to rotate, and each piston 9 reciprocally moves within the first cylinder bore 21a and the second cylinder bore 23a. As a result, the first and second compression chambers 53a and 53b change the volume in accordance with the piston stroke. The refrigerant introduced into the first and second suction chambers 27a and 27b is compressed in the first and second compression chambers 53a and 53b and then discharged to the first and second discharge chambers 29a and 29b.

The refrigerant discharged into the first discharge chamber (29a) reaches the confluence discharge chamber (23j) via the first discharge communication path (18). Likewise, the refrigerant discharged to the second discharge chamber 29b reaches the confluence discharge chamber 23j via the second discharge communication passage 20. [ The refrigerant which has reached the confluence discharge chamber 23j is discharged from the discharge port 23d to the condenser through the pipe.

The inclination angle of the swash plate 5 with respect to the direction orthogonal to the rotary axis O1 of the drive shaft 3 is changed by the actuator 13 so that each piston 9 is rotated, The discharge capacity is changed.

First, a case where the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 changes to the maximum state shown in Fig. 1 will be described. 3, when the control valve 15c reduces the opening degree of the low-pressure passage 15a, the pressure of the refrigerant in the second discharge chamber 29b causes the pressure in the pressure adjusting chamber 31 The pressure rises, and the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b rises. As a result, the variable pressure differential within the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 33 becomes large. This prevents the actuator 13 from pressing against the compression reaction force acting on the swash plate 5 through the pistons 9 and moving the swash plate chamber 33 from the position shown in Fig. 2 toward the rear side And enters the second concave portion 23c as shown in Fig.

As a result, the moving body 13a can move in the direction of the first trailing surface 115 and the second trailing surface 125 of the first arm 110 and the second arm 120, The swash plate 5 is pulled to the rear side of the swash plate chamber 33 through the first shaft portion 151 and the second shaft portion 152 of the connecting pin 155. [ 11, the first trailing surface 115 and the second trailing surface 125 are moved in a rolling direction so that the first shaft portion 151 and the second shaft portion 152 approach the rotation axis O1, do. As a result, as shown in Fig. 1, the swash plate 5 swings counterclockwise around the working axis M1. Further, the front end of the lug arm 49 oscillates clockwise around the second pivot axis M2, and is remote from the first flange 43f of the first support member 43a. As a result, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 increases. As a result, in this compressor, the stroke of each piston 9 increases, and the discharge capacity per revolution of the drive shaft 3 increases. In the state where the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 shown in Fig. 1 is the maximum, the stroke of each piston 9 becomes the maximum, and the discharge capacity per revolution of the drive shaft 3 becomes the maximum capacity.

Next, a description will be given of a case where the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 is changed from the maximum state shown in Fig. 1 to the minimum state shown in Fig. When the control valve 15c increases the degree of opening of the low-pressure passage 15a in the control mechanism 15 shown in Fig. 3, the pressure in the pressure adjusting chamber 31, and hence the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b, 2 suction chamber 27b, and the variable pressure differential becomes smaller.

2, the swash plate 5 is urged in the direction in which the inclination angle is decreased by the compression reaction force acting on the swash plate 5 through the respective pistons 9, as shown in Fig. As a result, the moving body 13a is supported by the first traction surface 115 and the second traction surface 125 of the first arm 110 and the second arm 120, and the first traction surface 115 and the second traction surface 125 of the second arm 120, Is pulled toward the front side of the swash plate chamber (33) through the first shaft portion (151) and the second shaft portion (152) of the connecting pin (155). 11, the first trailing surface 115 and the second trailing surface 125 are rotated by a motor (not shown) so that the first shaft portion 151 and the second shaft portion 152 are spaced apart from the rotary shaft 01. At this time, do. As a result, as shown in Fig. 2, the swash plate 5 swings clockwise around the working axis M1. The front end of the lug arm 49 swings counterclockwise about the second pivot axis M2 and approaches the first flange 43f of the first support member 43a. As a result, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 decreases. As a result, in this compressor, the stroke of each piston 9 is reduced, and the discharge capacity per revolution of the drive shaft 3 is reduced. In the state where the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 shown in Fig. 2 is the minimum, the stroke of each piston 9 is the minimum, and the discharge capacity per revolution of the drive shaft 3 becomes the minimum capacity.

The first pulling surface 115 abuts against the first shaft portion 151 of the connecting pin 155 on the side opposite to the swash plate 5, as shown in Figs. 11 and 12 and the like. The second trailing surface 125 abuts the second shaft portion 152 of the connecting pin 155 on the side opposite to the swash plate 5.

As a result, compared with the frictional force when the first and second shaft portions 151 to 152 of the connecting pin 155 fixed to the object-facing portion 150 slide on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 The frictional force when the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 roll on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 becomes small.

In this compressor, the end face 151e of the first shaft portion 151 and the end face 152e of the second shaft portion 152 are C-chamfered. This makes it possible to suppress the engagement of the end faces 151e and 152e of the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 when the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 slide on the first and second opposing portions 111 and 121, The first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 can smoothly rotate on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125.

Therefore, in the compressor of the first embodiment, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 can be smoothly changed. In addition, in this compressor, wear of the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 and the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 can be suppressed, so that durability can be improved.

6 and 12, the first and second opposing portions 111 and 121 of the first and second arms 110 and 120 also function as regulating means, and the connecting pin 155, It is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost by regulating the position of the electric motor M1 in the direction of the electric motor M1.

In this compressor, the end face 151e of the first shaft portion 151 and the end face 152e of the second shaft portion 152 have a hemispherical shape. The other configuration of the third embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. For this reason, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and a description thereof will be omitted or simplified.

In the compressor of the third embodiment, the inner circumferential surface of the connecting pin hole 350h is formed so that the inner diameter at the opening end side is larger than the inner diameter at the inner side than the opening end. The inner circumferential surface of the connection pin hole 350h defines a space having a substantially north-like shape. An oil film of lubricating oil contained in the refrigerant is formed between the outer circumferential surface of the connecting pin 155 and the intermediate portion between the inner circumferential surface of the connecting pin hole 350h. 17, while allowing the connection pin 155 to be inclined with respect to the direction perpendicular to the imaginary plane D, the protruding portion 150 is formed so as to surround the electric axial center R1 As shown in Fig.

In the compressor of the third embodiment having the above-described structure, the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 rotate on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 in accordance with the change of the inclination angle of the swash plate 5, Move. 17, when the swash plate 5 is twisted around the direction orthogonal to the rotation axis O1, the relative positions of the first and second arms 110 and 120 and the protruding portion 150 Relationships are also off. Even in such a case, the electric axial center R1 is inclined with respect to the direction orthogonal to the imaginary plane D, so that the force acting on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125 of the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 The abutment can be maintained. As a result, it is possible to restrain the traction force acting on the first arm 110 and the traction force acting on the second arm 120 from being uneven.

In this compressor, the end face 151e of the first shaft portion 151 and the end face 152e of the second shaft portion 152 have a hemispherical shape. This makes it possible to suppress the engagement of the end surfaces 151e and 152e of the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 when the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 slide on the first and second opposing portions 111 and 121, The first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 can smoothly rotate on the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125.

Therefore, in the compressor of the third embodiment, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 can be changed smoothly, as in the compressors of the first and second embodiments. Further, even in this compressor, it is possible to suppress the abrasion of the first and second shaft portions 151 and 152 and the first and second traction surfaces 115 and 125, thereby improving durability.
